  • Patent number: 4738363
    Abstract: A container for storing and transporting empty beverage cans of similar cylindrical dimensions. A cover for the container can be sealed shut so as to secure the compartment in which the cans are stored against the entry of vermin during the time the cans are stored prior to transporting them to a retail store for return of deposit. The cover can be partially integral with the top edge of one wall of the container with the cover being connected with the top edges of the other walls by an easily removable continuous seal such as a zipper or a snag-and-hook fastener. The sealable cover can alternatively be completely removable from the top of the container with the continuous seal extending completely around the cover and the top of the container. The container is made of a washable, lightweight, waterproof material. At least one wall of the container is and may be transparent. A carrying strap or handle is provided, adjustable, as is conventional and well known.
